Is It Any Wonder?

March 7, 1986

WHILE STUDYING the multipaged computerized billing for my father's recent hospitalization before his death, I found more than $400 in charges for service and supplies rendered to him one and two days after he died.

In these days of attempts to combat waste and trying to meet our expenses, is it any wonder that we are furious when we see such errors go through and are paid by Medicare with no questions?
